Default Need your help.

Ok guys, whats up? I need your help trying to figure this puzzle, well at least for me it is. I dont know jack about wheels and tires and i am trying to learn. I am getting ready to buy some wheels here shortly. I have a stock 2011 z with stock wheels and suspension. Now, i am going to buy a set of VarrsToen ES 2.2.2.
For a set of the ES 2.2.2 in:
19x9.5 +12 Fronts
19x10.5 +12 Rears
Below are the pics of the wheels. Here are some of the things i need to know.

I need to know the best tire set that i can buy for this wheels. Wether or not i need or its recommended to get spacers and if so what are the specs. If any vendors like to make some offers on the wheels and tires, that would be great. But again guys, thank you for teaching me something about wheels!

Just by doing some research, most guys run 255 front, 305 rear. With those widths and offsets, the car will sit flush with a moderate drop.

As for best tires, a lot of talk about Bridgestone RE-11.

Good luck modding.

Or you can get hankook evo v12 in the same size mentioned above for less and still good tires. But go with re11 if you have the dough of course. Have fun modding !!
